specs:
PSU: EVGA gold 650
Motherboard: MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus
Graphics card: GTX 970 -> RTX 3080
So, I‘ve just recieved my 3080 and after I plugged it in my monitor couldn‘t even display the post screen. I‘ve switched back to my other GPU, my GTX 970, for the moment and everything works just fine. What I can say is that my motherboard, which has the debug lights, shows no problem with anything. Also, I’ve checked the cables and plugged them in again but that didn’t change much at all. On top of that, the fans of the 3080 are spinning and it is definitely on. I flashed my bios but that didn’t work either. Lastly, I haven‘t been able to change the GPU drivers which might be the problem. What im also suspecting is that the PSU is not enough because nvidia themselves recommend 750W but I am not able to test that atm.
Problem solved - unplugged everything, pressed power button for 30 seconds, reseated ram and it booted up just fine
